ARCHIVE: Masks on the Move!

UPDATE: The new thread is up! If you are joining in, or just prefer to sit back and watch, join @lmaster at:

Spring MOTM box will be starting in mid-February. If you are interested in joining, please take a moment to complete the brief survey below prior to January 31st. ***If you have not participated in this or other BIC traveling boxes/unicorn mail, please PM me prior to completing the survey.*** We hope to see and share masks with some new faces!!!

Some pertinent info regarding the NEW double-box-in-progess set-up:

Spoiler
We will have two boxes in process this time. We are currently discussing the box composition and will update once decided what works best for the group.

Two BIC'ers will start off the boxes and they will travel through the shipping order until they make it to the other person at the end. 

CA participants are welcome to join again, we just need to ensure we have enough participants willing to ship in/out of the country. This will affect shipping order; other than that, order will be tentatively arranged by region to help offset shipping costs for participants.

Thank you to all who joined in the last round, we ended up with almost quadruple the original masks, which allowed me to create two new separate boxes (I also added in the extras from the first MOTM). There will be a bag of extras as usual, you all are so generous and make this so much fun!

Looking forward to February:)

Thank you @itsfi for all of your help in setting up the framework for the MOtM, and your many helpful suggestions. The entire masking community here is grateful to you!

  1. There will be 10 face sheet masks in the packet at all times. you can remove as many or as little as you would like; but there should always be 10 masks moving forward to the next participant. You may add in extras like eye, feet or hand masks, but they will not count toward the 10 masks (they are little bonuses😉). Let's just try to keep a good variety in the box, and if there is an ISO, please be kind and don't take it out as an extra. 'Filler' masks would be great bonus items to take out when there is an overflow. Really! Filler masks would be defined as daily masks, generally ones that can be found at TJ Maxx/Nordstrom Rack/etc. and/or are widely available
  2. How do I ship? Padded flat rate Priority envelopes are great for this, and can be ordered for free on the USPS site. Any packaging is fine, but please take care to ensure the masks are adequately protected. A smaller package will encourage more participation, which in turn makes things more fun! Think cost-effective for those shipping internationally. 
  3. Will this be open to US and Canada? Yes! As long as there is an interest and participants willing to ship, we would love to cross the border. This would be taken into consideration in the shipping order.
  4. Any eligibility requirements? Anyone who is has posted regularly to the previous or current thread is eligible. In addition, if you have been involved in other thread challenges on a regular basis/BIC exchanges such as Holiday, Galentine's or Halloween/traveling boxes, you are also eligible. We love new participants, please PM me if you are interested! 
  5. Approval: To be fair, a minimum of the person receiving the box and 3-4 others will suffice. If at all possible, please take into account any ISO's or skin type when moving the box forward.
  6. Mask Guidelines: The idea is to share your Favorite/Great Finds/Discoveries Masks. Please be considerate and keep in mind this is to give others (and yourself!) an opportunity to try some new and different masks. Let's not send gross masks/masks we just want to get rid of - this is to share our love of masking!
  7. What happens if the box gets lost? USPS provides a $50 insured value for free. If a box is lost in transit, you are responsible for shipping an additional box to the next participant. Declaring a $50 value ensures that you would be reimbursed by USPS in the event your package is lost; however this is a lengthy process and thus it would be your responsibility to keep the flow of the boxes moving by curating a new box and shipping it out as quickly as possible.
  8. How does the order work? I will use a random generator; if there are Canadian participants I would need to take that into consideration depending on how many people would be willing to ship in/out of country.

 

@missJeanie @eshoe I shipped standard, supposed to be 3-7...

@missjeanie @eshoe I shipped standard, supposed to be 3-7 business days.

Re: @missJeanie @eshoe I shipped standard, supposed to be 3-7...

@Nickelliebear1 Nice!  I just checked the tracking and it's in the next town over from me.  Now that town is a good 4 hours away, but I'll keep a look out over the next day or two!  I wasn't sure with being in different regions how long it would take.  Gotta say, I'm impressed by Canada Post, I usually feel like things take forever with them.

Re: @missJeanie @eshoe I shipped standard, supposed to be 3-7...

Hi guys - tracking the progress of the other box. With these new plans I’m gone out of town returning on Sunday. Is that ok?

Re: @missJeanie @eshoe I shipped standard, supposed to be 3-7...

Hey @kelloua , canada post isn’t giving me an expected date of delivery, that said I’m guessing in the next day or two. I believe the last one I sent made it to you in 3 days. Would you like me to hold off shipping if it’ll get there after Saturday? 
never mind.... pay attention Shawna! Returning Sunday! Lol I can hold off on shipping for a day or two so that it wouldn’t come until Monday or Tuesday!

Re: @missJeanie @eshoe I shipped standard, supposed to be 3-7...

Sounds good to me @kelloua 

Re: Masks on the Move!

I say combine it and use the left overs for the spring box @eshoe 

Re: Masks on the Move!

@eshoe I'm ok with combining it too.

Re: Masks on the Move!

Maybe it can meet up with the other box (I think @kelloua has it now?) and combine? Really I don't have a strong preference with any of the ideas! Happy @Nickelliebear1 is back! @eshoe 

Re: Masks on the Move!

I love the idea of combining it, @scott1201! I think that would be a great way to keep them moving. Let’s hear from a few others and then decide something hopefully today @kelloua  @missjeannie 

Re: Masks on the Move!

Combining is a great idea!  Duh.  And now more masks to choose from!  Bwahahaha @eshoe @missjeanie @kelloua 

RE: Re: Masks on the Move!

I’m fine with combining!

Re: Masks on the Move!

Im fine with either @eshoe ! it might be easier to have it just keep moving per normal!

Re: Masks on the Move!

Yaye!  I'd say let it continue its cycle to the end. 

And consider the one in the meantime that eshoe quick got rolling a bonus run for those that got it.  @eshoe @missjeanie 

Re: Masks on the Move!

Re: Masks on the Move!

I'm good with it either going through the final recipients or doing another full circle around @eshoe 

Re: Masks on the Move!

I'm open as well. Just let me know as I have the second one now. (Apologies - I hit some weather delays getting home yesterday due to snow in Chicago so I got home later than expected). I was going to share my proposed trades today so I guess I need to know if @eshoe you want me to send it back to you or if it is going on to the next person.

Re: Masks on the Move!

@kelloua sounds like you should just hold on to it for now, since it looks like we might just combine them @missjeanie 

Re: Masks on the Move!

Masks were dropped off at the post office yesterday and are back on the move to @kelloua today! Should be there in two days!

RE: Re: Masks on the Move!

Masks came! I’m currently traveling for work but back on Thursday so I’ll post my trades then. My husband is home so he brought the package in and it is safe and sound.

Re: Masks on the Move!

Getting more and more excited for it to get to meeeee! @missjeanie @eshoe 

Re: Masks on the Move!

You and me both, @scott1201!!!
